to use markdown language.

Slightly updated the main README.md according to our current environment

Instead use the new ThunarxMenuItem class and keep all
the deprecated stuff internally, away from the extensions
API.

Remove them or replace them with vim modelines where appropriate.

Make sure to always pass a fourth startup_id parameter to all D-Bus
methods (add the parameter in the comments as well).

We now have startup notification support in the Thunar D-Bus interface
which adds a startup ID parameter to some of the D-Bus methods.

Most of them are the new tooltip api in plugins and
GtkEntry -> GtkEditable functions.

I'm 100% sure I can implement all ThunarVFS thumbnailers on top of
tumbler in time for the Xfce 4.8 release. Same about the volume monitor
backend for GIO to avoid a GVfs dependency. So why not merge the GIO
branch now?

Not much to say about this merge. It replaces ThunarVFS with GIO inside
Thunar and Thunarx, something I've been working on over the past few
months. It currently requires GVfs for volume monitoring and also
(optionally) depends on tumbler for thumbnail generation. Enjoy.

All .po files are going to be updated in the next commit.

	  which is a rather common operation.
	* thunar/thunar-dbus-service.c
	  (thunar_dbus_service_parse_uri_and_display): Use the newly added

	  thunar/thunar-renamer-dialog.{c,h}, thunar/Makefile.am: Some polish on
	  the dialog and the model. Allow users to add/remove files using the
	  context menu. Add a standalone mode in which the bulk rename dialog
	  appears as standalone application and which can be invoked through the
	  D-BUS service. Bug #1597.
	* thunar/thunar-standard-view.c(thunar_standard_view_action_rename):
	  Keep up with the ThunarRenamerDialog changes.
	* thunar/main.c, thunar/thunar-application.{c,h},
	  thunar/thunar-dbus-client.{c,h}, thunar/thunar-dbus-service-infos.xml,
	  thunar/thunar-dbus-service.c: Add BulkRename() method to the D-BUS
	  interface org.xfce.Thunar and add command line option -B to Thunar,
	  which allows to open the bulk rename dialog directly. Bug #1597.
	* Thunar-folder-handler.desktop.in.in, Thunar.desktop.in.in,
	  Makefile.am: Rearrange the .desktop file handling.
	* Makefile.am, Thunar-bulk-rename.desktop.in.in, ThunarBulkRename.in:
	  Add launcher for the bulk rename utility. Bug #1597.
	* examples/thunar-file-manager.py, examples/Makefile.am: Add example
	  for the usage of the org.xfce.Thunar interface.
	* thunarx/thunarx-renamer.{c,h}, thunarx/thunarx.symbols: Add new method
	  get_actions() to ThunarxRenamer, as discussed with Jannis, to allow
	  plugin writers to add custom actions to the renamers tree view

	  new function thunar_vfs_canonicalize_filename().
	* thunar-vfs/thunar-vfs-path.c(thunar_vfs_path_new): Use
	  thunar_vfs_canonicalize_filename() on absolute paths.
	* docs/reference/thunar-vfs/: Update the thunar-vfs API docs.
	* thunar/thunar-dialogs.{c,h}: Use a generic parent parameter instead of
	  a GtkWidget, so this method is also usable if no GtkWidget is none,
	  but the dialog must appear on a specific screen.
	* thunar/thunar-application.{c,h}: Add a "daemon" property, which
	  determines whether Thunar will exit once the last window is closed.
	  Remove the D-BUS service here. Add process_filenames() method, to
	  process the list of filenames given on the command line. Bug #1384.
	* thunar/main.c: Attach the D-BUS here.
	* Makefile.am, org.xfce.Thunar.service.in: Add Thunar specific service
	  file.
	* thunar/thunar-dbus-service-infos.xml, thunar/thunar-dbus-service.c:
	  Add the org.xfce.Thunar interface here, with currently only a
	  LaunchFiles() method, which can process Thunar command line parameters
	  in a remote instance. Bug #1384.
	* thunar/thunar-dbus-client.{c,h}, thunar/Makefile.am: Add convenience
	  wrapper for the D-BUS LaunchFiles() of the org.xfce.Thunar interface,
	  which is used on startup to first try to reuse an existing instance.
	  This way new folder windows will popup instantly if an instance of
	  Thunar is already running.
	* org.xfce.Thunar.service.in, org.xfce.FileManager.service.in,
	  thunar/main.c: Add --daemon option and use it when starting from the
	  message bus. Pass all additional parameters as file names to a run-
	  ning remote instance or to ThunarApplication as fallback. Bug #1384.
	* examples/xfce-file-manager.py, examples/Makefile.am: Add a simple
	  example how to communicate with the file manager using the D-BUS
	  Python bindings.

(Old svn revision: 19782)

	* thunar/thunar-standard-view.c
	  (thunar_standard_view_merge_custom_actions): Fix typo.
	* thunarx/thunarx-private.{c,h}, thunarx/thunarx-menu-provider.c,
	  thunarx/Makefile.am, thunarx/thunarx-property-page-provider.c: Add
	  helper function thunarx_object_list_take_reference(), so we don't
	  need to repeat the same code again and again.
	* thunar/thunar-window.c(action_entries): Add ... to the Preferences
	  action, since it opens a dialog. Use "e" as mnemonic, as "P" is
	  already used by "Paste".
	* thunar/thunar-standard-view.c(action_entries): Add ... to the Select
	  by Pattern action, since it opens a dialog.
	* thunar/thunar-preferences-dialog.c: Close preferences dialog on Esc

	  thunarx/thunarx.symbols, thunarx/Makefile.am: Add new interface
	  ThunarxPreferencesProvider, which can be implemented to add custom
	  actions to the preferences section of the "Edit" menu.
	* thunar/thunar-window-ui.xml, thunar/thunar-window.c: Query custom
	  preferences actions from the installed providers and add them to the
	  preferences section of the "Edit" menu. Actions are loaded in an idle
	  source to not delay folder loading when opening a new window, even if
	  a lot of preferences providers are installed.
	* docs/reference/thunarx/: Update the thunarx reference documentation.
	* thunar-uca/, configure.in.in, Makefile.am: Import the thunar-uca
	  module, which provides advanced users with an easy way to add custom
	  actions to Thunar's context menus. With this extension in place
	  there's no longer a need to add support G-Scripts (except maybe an
	  importer for thunar-uca).
	* po/POTFILES.in: Add new translatable files.
	* po/: Merge new strings.
	* examples/tex-open-terminal/README: Add note to use thunar-uca, and
	  consider the tex-open-terminal as example for extension writers.

	  thunarx/thunarx.h, thunarx/thunarx.symbols: Add ThunarxProviderPlugin
	  interface, which abstracts from the details of the dynamic type
	  registration, and is accessible to the extensions.
	* thunarx/thunarx-provider-module.{c,h}, thunarx/Makefile.am: Add
	  implementation for the ThunarxProviderPlugin interface, based on
	  GTypeModule, which is used on the file manager's side to manage the
	  type plugins.
	* thunarx/thunarx-provider-factory.{c,h}, thunarx/Makefile.am,
	  thunarx/thunarx.h, thunarx/thunarx.symbols: Add ThunarxProviderFactory
	  based on the ThunarExtensionManager as public interface to the
	  provider plugin mechanism. This may also be used by other applications
	  in the future.
	* thunarx/thunarx.h: Provide convenience macros ala G_DEFINE_TYPE() to
	  ease type registration for plugin writers.
	* examples/, configure.in.in: Update the "Open Terminal Here" example.
	* docs/reference/thunarx/: Update the thunarx reference manual to
	  include the new classes and interfaces.
	* thunar/thunar-extension-manager.{c,h}: Drop the old extension manager
	  class in favour of the new provider factory class.
	* thunar/thunar-properties-dialog.c, thunar/thunar-standard-view.c: Use
	  ThunarxProviderFactory to load the providers from the installed
	  extensions.
	* po/POTFILES.in: Update with new file list.
	* thunar/thunar-file.{c,h}: Implement thunar_file_list_copy() using
	  thunarx_file_info_list_copy() and thunar_file_list_free() using
	  thunarx_file_info_list_free().
	* docs/reference/thunar-vfs/thunar-vfs-overrides.txt,
	  docs/reference/thunarx/thunarx-overrides.txt: Fix build error with
	  older gtk-doc versions.




(Old svn revision: 18919)

	* thunar-vfs/thunar-vfs-*.c: Documentation tweaks.
	* configure.in.in, docs/reference/Makefile.am,
	  docs/reference/thunar-vfs/: Prepare Thunar-VFS reference manual.
	* thunar/thunar-list-model.c(thunar_list_model_get_statusbar_text):
	  Use ngettext() for the statusbar text.
	* thunar/thunar-launcher.c(thunar_launcher_update): Use ngettext() for
	  the "Open in n New Windows" menu label.
	* thunar/thunar-launcher.c(thunar_launcher_open_new_windows): Use
	  ngettext() for the question whether to open n separate windows.
	* thunar/thunar-launcher.c(thunar_launcher_open_uris): Use ngettext()
	  to format the error message when opening multiple URIs at once
	  failes.
	* po/*.po: Update po files.
	* configure.in.in, examples/open-terminal-here/Makefile.am,
	  thunar-vfs/Makefile.am, thunar/Makefile.am, thunarx/Makefile.am:
	  Don't add debugging and visibility flags to CFLAGS, CPPFLAGS and
	  LDFLAGS, but use PLATFORM_CFLAGS, PLATFORM_CPPFLAGS and
	  PLATFORM_LDFLAGS instead to avoid trouble with certain conftests
	  when checking the distribution.




(Old svn revision: 17769)

	* thunar/thunar-standard-view.c: Sort the extension actions by their
	  names instead of their labels.
	* thunar/thunar-extension-manager.c(thunar_extension_class_init):
	  Properly initialize the parent class reference.

	* thunar-vfs/thunar-vfs-mime-database.c
	  (thunar_vfs_mime_database_get_info_for_file): When generating an
	  application/x-extension-<EXT> mime type and no valid extension is
	  found for the file name, fallback to the whole filename as suggested
	  by jrb. This way we can make sure that we will never return
	  application/octet-stream from this method and thereby allow the
	  program chooser to set default applications for every mime type
	  used in the file manager.
	* thunar/Makefile.am: Add $(top_builddir) to INCLUDES.




(Old svn revision: 17560)
